Biblical Languages on the Android App

Peter Boeckel · July 2011

I just downloaded the Logos Android app on my LG Ally (android version 2.2.2) and tried to look at my Hebrew resources. In both the BHS and the Lexham Hebrew-English Interlinear Bible, the Hebrew letters are out of order. BHS seems to be worse than Lexham. In the Lexham resource, it appears that the first letter of a word displays at the end of the word (the left-hand side in Hebrew). In the BHS resource, letters are overlapping and/or missing.

I also noticed that parsing is not displaying for me with the morphologically tagged BHS. Is that a feature we are still waiting on?

I also noticed that the Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament is not showing up in my library. Is that due to copyright issues?

RTL display is a known issue: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/35137.aspx

I see the Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament in my library, so I'm not sure why it's not showing up for you. You can try making sure you have a good internet connection then pressing menu->update in your library.

Edit: Sorry, I don't have the resource either. I was looking in the wrong place

What do you have to type in the search box to get the Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament? "NA27" and "Nestle" both get no results. "Greek" gets lots of resources, but NA27 isn't one of them.

Pam, typing nestle works for me on the EVO 3d

I have tried all of those search terms, but it isn't coming up for me. SBL is...

Also, I assume the morph info is not implemented yet?

I get the same thing. When I type "Nestle" I don't get anything. When I type "Greek New Testament" I get a lot of things (but not the NA27). I do see the SBL resource.

David,

I tried updating my library, but that didn't do anything.

This is also not showing up in my mobile library (Droid X) regardless of search terms.

This is also not showing up on my Droid X. I am also not able to find the UBS4. If anyone has the UBS4, what search terms are you using? Thank you and Lord bless!

I found the Swanson New Testament, which is UBS4.

I have had exactly the same two problems: scrambled BHS and absence of Nestle-Aland. Doing a library update does not fix the latter problem.

I also am missing the NA27 from my library. (updating did not fix it)

The NA27 is not available on the mobile readers (iOS or Android), note the lack of the smartphone icon in the "Works on" section on its product page:
http://www.logos.com/product/1813/nestle-aland-27th-edition-greek-new-testament

It's probably a licensing issue with the publisher.

Other Greek New Testaments are available on mobile readers (UBS4, SBLGNT, WH1881):

Todd,

Any ideas why David Schwegler is able to see Nestle in his mobile device above?

The NA27 without Morphology (NA27NM.logos4) is available on mobile devices. But that resource doesn't have a product page, it's not listed in any base packages, and I'm not sure where my license for it came from. If you have that one in your library then you should get it on a mobile device.

But if you only have any other NA27, then I don't think you'll see it on your phone/tablet.

Edit: I have to say this is very confusing. If the non-morphological NA27 is available, then why isn't the one with Logos Morphology?

Also, the NA27 in the base packages has the Logos Morphology, whereas the NA27 sold at the link I mentioned in my last post has Gramcord morphology. (FYI, The first two NA27s in the screenshot above are Logos Morphology--I've hidden my NA27s with Gramcord Morphology)

So it seems the NA27 with Logos Morphology is not available outside of a base package--which means it doesn't have a product page where you can check its mobile device availability.
